| Summary: | Modern digital systems demand increasing electronic
resources, so the multiprocessor platforms are a suitable
solution for them. This approach provides better results in terms
of area, speed, and power consumption compared to traditional
uniprocessor digital systems. Reconfigurable multiprocessor systems
are a particular type of embedded system, implemented
using reconfigurable hardware. This paper presents a review
of this emerging research area. A number of state-of-the-art
systems published in this field are presented and classified. Design
methods and challenges are also discussed. Advances in FPGA
technology are leading to more powerful systems in terms of
processing and flexibility. Flexibility is one of the strong points
of this kind of system, and multiprocessor systems can even be
reconfigured at run time, allowing hardware to be adjusted to
the demands of the application. |
